Here are the ingredients you need to make shawarma with crab sticks.

Let's start by chopping the ingredients. We chop fresh white cabbage very thinly. If you have a special grater for chopping cabbage, you can use it.

Transfer the cabbage to a bowl, season with salt and mix with your hands. The cabbage will give juice and be juicy.

Rinse the fresh cucumber under water. We will not peel off the peel. Thinly slice the cucumber into ring shapes.

We remove the crab sticks from the packaging, which should be defrosted by the time the shawarma is prepared.

Using a knife, cut the crab sticks into strips.

Thin pita bread can be divided into two parts, this will make it more convenient to form the shawarma. So, place the pita bread on a clean table.

Lubricate the surface of thin pita bread with mayonnaise. You can use any mayonnaise. We retreat about 2 cm from the edges of the pita bread.

We spread the filling. First, carefully make a layer of shredded white cabbage.

Place crab stick sticks on the cabbage layer.

Place thin cucumber slices on a layer of crab sticks.

Lubricate the last cucumber layer with mayonnaise again.

We begin to roll the pita bread into the shape of an envelope.

This is the kind of shawarma with crab sticks we got. Enjoy your meal!
